INTRODUCTION
This package contains the State of Oklahoma Air Quality General Permit Application to Construct and/or Operate a Chromium Electroplating or Anodizing minor facility. Please read all the directions carefully before you fill it out. Answer all questions by checking the appropriate box or filling in a response (e.g., NA--not applicable). An original signature from a responsible official is required for certifications. Please note that delays in processing your application may occur if an incomplete application is submitted. It is the applicant’s responsibility to submit a complete application well in advance of anticipated commencement of construction, start up dates, or the effective date of operating permit program requirements to allow sufficient time for proper application review and permit issuance (generally 90 days).
ELIGIBILITY – Chrome Platers and Solvent Degreasers
The General Permit is for facilities perform hard chromium electroplating, decorative chromium electroplating, or chromium anodizing, either as their primary business, or anodizing ancillary to other facility operations. The General Permit is also for facilities that perform halogenated solvent degreasing. These facilities may include those emissions units subject to NESHAP (40 Part CFR 63) Subpart N (Chromium Emissions from Hard and Decorative Chromium Electroplating and Chromium Anodizing Tanks) and/or Subpart T (Halogenated Solvent Cleaning). Note that the NESHAP for chromium electroplating and anodizing tanks has no de minimis, thus all facilities with chromium electroplating or anodizing tanks that began operating after 1/25/95 are required to obtain a permit, regardless of their emissions. Likewise, the NESHAP for halogenated solvent cleaning applies to any batch vapor, in-line vapor, in-line cold, or batch cold solvent cleaning machine that uses any solvent containing methylene chloride, perchloroethylene, trichloroethylene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, or chloroform, or any combination of these halogenated HAP solvents, in a total concentration greater than 5% by weight, as a cleaning and/or drying agent. Facilities with machines that began operating after 12/2/94 are required to obtain a permit, regardless of their emissions.
The permit includes requirements for electroplating and anodizing process lines, solvent degreasing operations, boilers, and heaters. Facilities with other emissions units are not eligible for this permit, unless those units are de minimis (See OAC 252:100, Appendix H).
Facilities not eligible for this permit include those with emissions units subject to NSPS requirements under 40 CFR Part 60, those that are major (Part 70) sources; and those with emissions units subject to Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage and Disposal regulations (40 CFR Part 265). Other facilities not eligible include those seeking an Authorization to Construct that are located in an area designated as non-attainment or that cannot meet the specific conditions given in the permit; those requesting an Alternative Emissions Reduction Authorization; those with steam generating units (boilers) rated greater than 10 MMBTUH, those with volatile organic liquid storage tanks with capacity greater than 400 gallons; those that use thermal devices (such as incinerators, flares, or thermal oxidizers) as a control device for emissions of solvents. These facilities must apply for an individual construction permit. Following construction in compliance with the individual permit, such facilities may seek an Authorization to Operate under this general permit, provided that all relevant requirements in the construction permit are incorporated into the Authorization to Operate.
Facilities owned or operated by applicants that have not paid all monies owed to the DEQ or that are not in substantial compliance with the Environmental Quality Code, rules of the Board and the terms of any existing DEQ permits and orders are not eligible for this permit unless they submit an approvable compliance plan to be included in an Authorization issued under this permit.
PERMIT CONTINUUM
This general permit has been developed to include requirements for all minor facilities with emissions above de minimis levels (including those required to obtain a permit because they are subject to a NESHAP). Thus, facilities typically eligible for Permit by Rule (generally > 5 TPY and < 40 TPY), and minor source (generally > ELECTROPLATING GENERAL PERMIT APPLICATION PAGE 2 Instructions Revised March 1, 2012
5 TPY and < 100 TPY) facilities may obtain coverage under this permit if they meet the eligibility requirements. The permit is structured so that eligible facilities can sequentially obtain an Authorization to Construct and an Authorization to Operate under the permit, or obtain an individual construction permit and then an Authorization to Operate under the general permit. The latter approach is usually used when it is desired to include certain site-specific requirements into the Authorization to Operate, e.g., non-attainment, BACT, or other site-specific conditions from a previously issued construction permit. However, such conditions must be equivalent or more stringent than those already established from applicable requirements given in the general permit.
The permit is designed to allow minor facilities to fulfill the requirement to obtain a construction permit and operating permit for new facilities and for modifications to existing facilities. A construction permit (or Authorization to Construct) is required prior to commencing construction or installation of any new facility other than a de minimis facility. A construction permit (or Authorization to Construct) is also required to add a piece of equipment or a process that is subject to NSPS or NESHAP. After construction is complete, application for an operating permit or an Authorization to Operate must be submitted within 60 days after start-up. De minimis Facilities and those that are grandfathered from permit requirements should also obtain a minor source permit to avoid the requirement to obtain a Title V (Part 70) permit if they have the potential to emit (PTE) greater than a major source threshold level (100 TPY of any regulated pollutant, 10 TPY of any single HAP, or 25 TPY of all HAPs).
EMISSIONS LIMITATIONS
Emissions limitations are established in Authorizations issued under this permit as a facility-wide cap on emissions, not to equal or exceed major source thresholds (see previous paragraph). These limitations are generally established from specific conditions given in the general permit, or may be incorporated into an Authorization from previously issued permits for the facility so long as they are equivalent or more stringent than those established in the general permit. Thus, minor facilities, for which the permit is valid for the life of the facility, will typically only need a new Authorization when they add a piece of equipment subject to NSPS or NESHAP. Any other change would require only that the permittee not exceed the major source thresholds, and that a 7-day advance notification of the change is provided to DEQ.
TIER DETERMINATION
DEQ's “Uniform Permitting” system, under OAC 252:002, categorizes applications as Tier I, II, or III, depending on their complexity and the amount of public interest. All Authorizations under a minor facility GP are issued as Tier I. Tier I requirements include landowner notification. Public notice is not required for filing the application or issuance of the Authorization.

DEQ FORM # 100-320 PAGE OF 1 of 3 REVISED 5/26/2000
REQUEST FOR AN AUTHORIZATION TO CONSTRUCT UNDER THE AIR QUALITY GENERAL PERMIT FOR MINOR CHROMIUM ELECTROPLATING AND ANODIZING FACILITIES EMISSION UNIT INFORMATION
This request form is provided for use by facilities that wish to construct or reconstruct chromium electroplating and anodizing facilities and/or halogenated solvent degreasing operations under an Authorization to Construct under the General Permit. The form may be used by similar facilities that are not eligible for an Authorization to Construct under the General Permit, and must obtain an individual Construction Permit. A request for an Authorization to Construct under the General Permit should include this form (DEQ Form # 100-320), along with a completed General Facility Information form (DEQ Form # 100-884) and Landowner Notification Affidavit (DEQ Form # 100-810). An “Optional Forms Packet” is available for assistance in providing required information.
CONFIRMATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR AN AUTHORIZATION TO CONSTRUCT (Part 1, Section II of the referenced General Permit.) Check the answer that applies: I have reviewed the General Permit’s eligibility section, and the proposed project meets the stated eligibility requirements for an Authorization to Construct. The proposed project does not meet the stated eligibility requirements for an Authorization to Construct. I hereby request that this application be processed for issuance of an individual Construction Permit.
In the following table, please list each chromium electroplating and anodizing plating line, solvent degreasing machine, or other emission unit (e.g., non-chromium plating line, boiler or heater) located at your plant. For each unit, give a unique identifier (e.g. facility numbering system or emissions inventory ID#), a description (e.g., hard chromium electroplating tank or halogenated solvent cleaning machine), number of hours per year operated, the date the equipment was manufactured or modified, the installation date (actual or projected), the type and efficiency of any control equipment, whether that unit is subject to a NESHAP (Enter “N,” “T,” “Other,” or “None”). In addition, indicate whether the unit is subject of the requested permit action. (For an application for a new facility, check “Yes” on all units. For an existing (permitted) facility, check “Yes” only on those specific machines being added or modified.) Data submitted for construction permits should be a best estimate and can be modified following actual construction.

This form is used to document both a preliminary determination of the Tier classification and any associated Application Fee.
Step 1: APPLICATION CLASSIFICATION AND TIER DETERMINATION
DEQ’s “Uniform Permitting” system, under OAC 252:004, categorizes different types of applications as Tier I, II, or III, depending on their complexity and the amount of public interest. The main effect of a Tier classification is the amount of public review given the application. For Air Quality permits, Tier I basically includes minor facilities and most synthetic minor facilities. Tier II covers major sources, and Tier III covers only very large sources such as those requiring PSD review. Additional information to make a preliminary determination of the Tier classification is provided on the next page. This determination will be verified before permit issuance.
Note that all Tier II and III applications require public notice of the application in one newspaper local to the site or facility as soon after the filing date as possible. Other public participation requirements, such as notice of draft and proposed permit, and notice of public meeting may also be required. Contact our office for more information on these requirements.

INTRODUCTION
This package contains the State of Oklahoma Air Quality General Permit Application to Construct and/or Operate a Chromium Electroplating or Anodizing minor facility. Please read all the directions carefully before you fill it out. Answer all questions by checking the appropriate box or filling in a response (e.g., NA--not applicable). An original signature from a responsible official is required for certifications. Please note that delays in processing your application may occur if an incomplete application is submitted. It is the applicant’s responsibility to submit a complete application well in advance of anticipated commencement of construction, start up dates, or the effective date of operating permit program requirements to allow sufficient time for proper application review and permit issuance (generally 90 days).
ELIGIBILITY – Chrome Platers and Solvent Degreasers
The General Permit is for facilities perform hard chromium electroplating, decorative chromium electroplating, or chromium anodizing, either as their primary business, or anodizing ancillary to other facility operations. The General Permit is also for facilities that perform halogenated solvent degreasing. These facilities may include those emissions units subject to NESHAP (40 Part CFR 63) Subpart N (Chromium Emissions from Hard and Decorative Chromium Electroplating and Chromium Anodizing Tanks) and/or Subpart T (Halogenated Solvent Cleaning). Note that the NESHAP for chromium electroplating and anodizing tanks has no de minimis, thus all facilities with chromium electroplating or anodizing tanks that began operating after 1/25/95 are required to obtain a permit, regardless of their emissions. Likewise, the NESHAP for halogenated solvent cleaning applies to any batch vapor, in-line vapor, in-line cold, or batch cold solvent cleaning machine that uses any solvent containing methylene chloride, perchloroethylene, trichloroethylene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane, carbon tetrachloride, or chloroform, or any combination of these halogenated HAP solvents, in a total concentration greater than 5% by weight, as a cleaning and/or drying agent. Facilities with machines that began operating after 12/2/94 are required to obtain a permit, regardless of their emissions.
The permit includes requirements for electroplating and anodizing process lines, solvent degreasing operations, boilers, and heaters. Facilities with other emissions units are not eligible for this permit, unless those units are de minimis (See OAC 252:100, Appendix H).
Facilities not eligible for this permit include those with emissions units subject to NSPS requirements under 40 CFR Part 60, those that are major (Part 70) sources; and those with emissions units subject to Hazardous Waste Treatment, Storage and Disposal regulations (40 CFR Part 265). Other facilities not eligible include those seeking an Authorization to Construct that are located in an area designated as non-attainment or that cannot meet the specific conditions given in the permit; those requesting an Alternative Emissions Reduction Authorization; those with steam generating units (boilers) rated greater than 10 MMBTUH, those with volatile organic liquid storage tanks with capacity greater than 400 gallons; those that use thermal devices (such as incinerators, flares, or thermal oxidizers) as a control device for emissions of solvents. These facilities must apply for an individual construction permit. Following construction in compliance with the individual permit, such facilities may seek an Authorization to Operate under this general permit, provided that all relevant requirements in the construction permit are incorporated into the Authorization to Operate.
Facilities owned or operated by applicants that have not paid all monies owed to the DEQ or that are not in substantial compliance with the Environmental Quality Code, rules of the Board and the terms of any existing DEQ permits and orders are not eligible for this permit unless they submit an approvable compliance plan to be included in an Authorization issued under this permit.
PERMIT CONTINUUM
This general permit has been developed to include requirements for all minor facilities with emissions above de minimis levels (including those required to obtain a permit because they are subject to a NESHAP). Thus, facilities typically eligible for Permit by Rule (generally > 5 TPY and < 40 TPY), and minor source (generally > ELECTROPLATING GENERAL PERMIT APPLICATION PAGE 2 Instructions Revised March 1, 2012
5 TPY and < 100 TPY) facilities may obtain coverage under this permit if they meet the eligibility requirements. The permit is structured so that eligible facilities can sequentially obtain an Authorization to Construct and an Authorization to Operate under the permit, or obtain an individual construction permit and then an Authorization to Operate under the general permit. The latter approach is usually used when it is desired to include certain site-specific requirements into the Authorization to Operate, e.g., non-attainment, BACT, or other site-specific conditions from a previously issued construction permit. However, such conditions must be equivalent or more stringent than those already established from applicable requirements given in the general permit.
The permit is designed to allow minor facilities to fulfill the requirement to obtain a construction permit and operating permit for new facilities and for modifications to existing facilities. A construction permit (or Authorization to Construct) is required prior to commencing construction or installation of any new facility other than a de minimis facility. A construction permit (or Authorization to Construct) is also required to add a piece of equipment or a process that is subject to NSPS or NESHAP. After construction is complete, application for an operating permit or an Authorization to Operate must be submitted within 60 days after start-up. De minimis Facilities and those that are grandfathered from permit requirements should also obtain a minor source permit to avoid the requirement to obtain a Title V (Part 70) permit if they have the potential to emit (PTE) greater than a major source threshold level (100 TPY of any regulated pollutant, 10 TPY of any single HAP, or 25 TPY of all HAPs).
EMISSIONS LIMITATIONS
Emissions limitations are established in Authorizations issued under this permit as a facility-wide cap on emissions, not to equal or exceed major source thresholds (see previous paragraph). These limitations are generally established from specific conditions given in the general permit, or may be incorporated into an Authorization from previously issued permits for the facility so long as they are equivalent or more stringent than those established in the general permit. Thus, minor facilities, for which the permit is valid for the life of the facility, will typically only need a new Authorization when they add a piece of equipment subject to NSPS or NESHAP. Any other change would require only that the permittee not exceed the major source thresholds, and that a 7-day advance notification of the change is provided to DEQ.
TIER DETERMINATION
DEQ's “Uniform Permitting” system, under OAC 252:002, categorizes applications as Tier I, II, or III, depending on their complexity and the amount of public interest. All Authorizations under a minor facility GP are issued as Tier I. Tier I requirements include landowner notification. Public notice is not required for filing the application or issuance of the Authorization.

DEQ FORM # 100-320 PAGE OF 1 of 3 REVISED 5/26/2000
REQUEST FOR AN AUTHORIZATION TO CONSTRUCT UNDER THE AIR QUALITY GENERAL PERMIT FOR MINOR CHROMIUM ELECTROPLATING AND ANODIZING FACILITIES EMISSION UNIT INFORMATION
This request form is provided for use by facilities that wish to construct or reconstruct chromium electroplating and anodizing facilities and/or halogenated solvent degreasing operations under an Authorization to Construct under the General Permit. The form may be used by similar facilities that are not eligible for an Authorization to Construct under the General Permit, and must obtain an individual Construction Permit. A request for an Authorization to Construct under the General Permit should include this form (DEQ Form # 100-320), along with a completed General Facility Information form (DEQ Form # 100-884) and Landowner Notification Affidavit (DEQ Form # 100-810). An “Optional Forms Packet” is available for assistance in providing required information.
CONFIRMATION OF ELIGIBILITY FOR AN AUTHORIZATION TO CONSTRUCT (Part 1, Section II of the referenced General Permit.) Check the answer that applies: I have reviewed the General Permit’s eligibility section, and the proposed project meets the stated eligibility requirements for an Authorization to Construct. The proposed project does not meet the stated eligibility requirements for an Authorization to Construct. I hereby request that this application be processed for issuance of an individual Construction Permit.
In the following table, please list each chromium electroplating and anodizing plating line, solvent degreasing machine, or other emission unit (e.g., non-chromium plating line, boiler or heater) located at your plant. For each unit, give a unique identifier (e.g. facility numbering system or emissions inventory ID#), a description (e.g., hard chromium electroplating tank or halogenated solvent cleaning machine), number of hours per year operated, the date the equipment was manufactured or modified, the installation date (actual or projected), the type and efficiency of any control equipment, whether that unit is subject to a NESHAP (Enter “N,” “T,” “Other,” or “None”). In addition, indicate whether the unit is subject of the requested permit action. (For an application for a new facility, check “Yes” on all units. For an existing (permitted) facility, check “Yes” only on those specific machines being added or modified.) Data submitted for construction permits should be a best estimate and can be modified following actual construction.

This form is used to document both a preliminary determination of the Tier classification and any associated Application Fee.
Step 1: APPLICATION CLASSIFICATION AND TIER DETERMINATION
DEQ’s “Uniform Permitting” system, under OAC 252:004, categorizes different types of applications as Tier I, II, or III, depending on their complexity and the amount of public interest. The main effect of a Tier classification is the amount of public review given the application. For Air Quality permits, Tier I basically includes minor facilities and most synthetic minor facilities. Tier II covers major sources, and Tier III covers only very large sources such as those requiring PSD review. Additional information to make a preliminary determination of the Tier classification is provided on the next page. This determination will be verified before permit issuance.
Note that all Tier II and III applications require public notice of the application in one newspaper local to the site or facility as soon after the filing date as possible. Other public participation requirements, such as notice of draft and proposed permit, and notice of public meeting may also be required. Contact our office for more information on these requirements.

TIER DETERMINATION INFORMATION
OAC 252:004-7 categorizes different types of Air Quality applications as Tier I, II, or III, depending on their complexity and the amount of public interest under DEQ’s “Uniform Permitting” system. The Tier classification affects the amount of public review given the application. Applicants may use the following format as a checklist for determining Tier classification.
OAC 252:4-7-32. Air quality applications - Tier I
(1) New construction, operating and relocation permit for a minor facility.
(2) Modification of a construction permit for a minor facility that will remain minor after the modification.
(3) Modification of an operating permit that will not change the facility’s classification from minor to major.
(4) Extension of expiration date of a minor facility construction permit.
(5) New construction permit for an existing Part 70 source for any facility change considered minor under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(1).
(6) New operating permit for a Part 70 source that is based on a construction permit that was processed under Tier II or III, 252:100-8-8 and has conditions which do not differ from the construction permit’s operating conditions in any way considered significant under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(2).
(7) Modification of any Part 70 source operating permit condition that is based on the operating conditions of a construction permit that was processed under Tier II or Tier III and OAC 252:100-8-8, and does not differ from those construction permit conditions in any way considered significant under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(2).
(8) A construction or operating permit modification that is minor under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(1).
(9) Extension of expiration date of a Part 70 source’s construction permit with no or minor modifications.
(10) New, modified and renewed individual authorizations under general operating permits for which a schedule of compliance is not required by OAC 252:100-8-5(e)(8)(B)(i).
(11) Burn approvals.
(12) Administrative amendments of all air quality permits and other authorizations.
OAC 252:4-7-33. Air quality applications - Tier II
(1) A minor facility seeking a permit for a facility modification that when completed would turn it into a Part 70 source.
(2) New construction permit for a new Part 70 source not classified under Tier III.
(3) New construction permit for an existing Part 70 source for any facility change considered significant under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(2) and which is not classified under Tier III.
(4) New operating permit for a Part 70 source that did not have an underlying construction permit processed under Tier II or Tier III, and OAC 252:100-8-8.
(5) New operating permit for a Part 70 source with one or more conditions that differ from the underlying Tier II or Tier III construction permit’s operating conditions in a way considered significant under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(2).
(6) New acid rain permit that is independent of a Part 70 permit application.
(7) New temporary source permit under OAC 252:100-8-6.2.
(8) Significant modification, as described in OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(2), of a Part 70 operating permit that is not based on an underlying construction permit processed under Tier II or Tier III, and OAC 52:100-8-8.
(9) Modification of a Part 70 operating permit when the conditions proposed for modification differ from the underlying construction permit’s operating conditions is an way considered significant under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(2).
(10) A Part 70 construction permit modification considered significant under OAC 252:100-8-7.2(b)(2) and which is not classified under Tier III.
(11) Renewals of operating permits for Part 70 sources.
(12) New, modified and renewed general operating permits.
(13) Individual authorizations under any general operating permit for which a schedule of compliance is required by OAC 252:100-8-5(c)(8)(B)(i).
(14) Plant-wide emission plan approval under OAC 252:100-37-25(b) or OAC 252:100-39-46(j).
(15) Alternative emissions reduction authorizations.
OAC 252:4-7-34. Air quality applications - Tier III
(a) A construction permit for any new major stationary source listed in this subsection requires a Tier III application. For purposes of this section, "Major stationary source" means:
(1) Any of the following sources of air pollutants which emits, or has the PTE, 100 TPY or more of any pollutant subject to regulation:
(A) carbon black plants (furnace process),
(B) charcoal production plants,
(C) chemical process plants,
(D) coal cleaning plants (with thermal dryers),
(E) coke oven batteries,
(F) fossil-fuel boilers (or combustion thereof),totaling more than 250 million BTU per hour heat input,
(G) fossil fuel-fired steam electric plants of more than 250 million BTU per hour heat input,
(H) fuel conversion plants,
(I) glass fiber processing plants,
(J) hydrofluoric, sulfuric or nitric acid plants,
(K) iron and steel mill plants,
(L) kraft pulp mills,
(M) lime plants,
(N) incinerators, except where used exclusively as air pollution control devices,
(O) petroleum refineries,
(P) petroleum storage and transfer units with a total storage capacity exceeding 300,000 barrels,
(Q) phosphate rock processing plant,
(R) portland cement plants,
(S) primary aluminum ore reduction plants,
(T) primary copper smelters,
(U) primary lead smelters,
(V) primary zinc smelters,
(W) secondary metal production plants,
(X) sintering plants,
(Y) sulfur recovery plants, or
(Z) taconite ore processing plants, and
(2) Any other source not specified in paragraph (1) of this definition which emits, or has the PTE, 250 TPY or more of any pollutant subject to regulation.
(b) Existing incinerators. An application for any change in emissions or potential to emit, or any change in any permit condition, that would have caused an incinerator to be defined as a major stationary source when originally permitted shall require a Tier III application.
(c) Potential to emit. For purposes of this section, "potential to emit" means emissions resulting from the application of all enforceable permit limitations as defined in OAC 252:100-1-3.
